CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Cavaliers will do something tonight
that they haven't done in two and a half weeks: Play after a loss.

Fresh off their first loss after a six-game winning streak,
the Cavaliers are charged with finding a way to win against the Washington
Wizards and their talented backcourt of John Wall and Bradley Beal.

"They're a tough backcourt," Cavaliers guard Jarrett Jack said.
"Two totally different dynamics in John, who's a speed demon up and down the
court, and Beal who has his outside shooting. It's a challenge we're definitely
ready for. We've played these guys, it seems like, a million times already, but
we've got to come out here and really handle business and defend our home
court."

The Cavaliers will have to face them without one of their
own star backcourt players, Dion Waiters, who continues to sit with a
hyperextended left knee.
